Default Spring has sprung!!
Looks like old man winter is moving out.

Time to get the C6 out of mothballs.

Anybody got a special springtime cruise planned to shake out the cobwebs?

We always get one more crappy week of bad weather before we count Spring has sprung here in MI. But yes tempting to think it's here.

My first special trips will be to work and back. Nothing major planned until May. Son lives in Aspen and I haven't been there in 2 years. Nice drive in the spring.

Didn't seem like we had a real winter - went from fall to spring to mild, one month of winter to spring.

It does my heart good to see photos of burtonbl103's silver beauty.

I'm torn between the Champions and the new BBS wheels for my car.

Who sells the Champions now?

If you come to Aspen and see a blue Z06 bombing around it will be me. Stop me and I will tell you about some of the the most specticular drive in this world.

Road that have not seen a Gov't vericle in years, and road with more twist than "Rock n' Roll"
